Nokia 6301 java app fix?

[robtim]

I am desperate to get my T-Mobile Nokia 6301b unbranded.

I used the official Nokia Software Updater; to flash it with RM-322 but it think I trashed the original software on the phone (which was RM-323). During flashing it said in 5 steps: “Unable to connect to the phone please unplug it, take out the battery and then put it back together and turn the phone on”, After doing this I selected the “Retry” button on the screen. For 2 hours it was saying 15 minutes to go, however nothing happened.

Now the phone is dead, it will light up with a black screen and I can not power it down with the power button. (Do you guys call that dead?)
I tried to use Nemesis and Phoenix but they also can not connect to it.

What to do here?
I have installed Phoenix but it can not scan the product code itself.
(In phoenix this should not be a problem because you should be able to select the product manually)

When I try to manually open the product (select: File-> Open product), it can not find the selected product. I selected several products: RM-337 or RM-322 or RM-323.

I did downloaded these products with: Tools -> Image File download.
I downloaded codes:
0557512 (RM-323)
0557400 (RM-322)
0559381 (RM-337) 05.6

Once I am able to select a product it should open the menu options for flashing by USB.
I am hoping that I then can try to flash and repair my phone.
However I have still no success with opening any product.

Please Help!

If anybody needs/wants the product pack to debrand this phone, PM me. With the help I received from corys00, this is a simple process! All you need is Phoenix 2007 or 2008 and the modified product pack for the 6301.

Easy enough?

First, thanks for all the helpful instructions and advice on this thread. After reading through the whole thing, I was able to flash my phone first with the previously mentioned versions (RM-323 v 05.93 along with RM-322 v 04.61 content image).

Then I thought I'd try upgrading to the latest T-Mo version of RM-323 (version 08.22). Nokia Software Updater wouldn't do it until I had removed the RM-322 content image and restored it back to RM-323. Maybe the product code or something wasn't matching. After that, I got the whole thing up to T-Mo RM-323 v 08.22

Then I found the latest RM-322 is at version 9.40. I figured what the hell, and I tried using the image content file from that, flashing with

rm323__08.22.mcusw
rm323__08.22.ppm_ntm
rm322__09.40.image_a

I got the 8.22 files by searching my hard drive after the Nokia Software Updater update for files added that day. I got the 9.40 image off the web.

I did the flash using "firmware update", as I only have a USB cable. No problems. I don't currently have wifi at my house, so I haven't yet tested everything, but on a first once-over, everything looks pretty much identical to the combo described earlier in the thread (RM-323 v 5.93 with RM-322 v 4.61)

Just fyi.

Also, incidentally, I did all this on a mac, using Virtualbox running WinXP.

Thanks again for all the info.

"Nokia 6301b Unbrand flash from RM-323 to RM-322 to get Java Internet"

[sofa-m]

radio streaming ?
not sure where to ask this question.. and I have yet to flash my phone - (just need to find time, already have all components downloaded)..
so, when I unbrand it and java is once again available to me - ... I just had this idea.. why not listen to some internet radiostations (mainly the ones broadcasting through shoutcast) through the phone?

I'm assuming some data plan from T-Mobile would be required, what else?
Some software (free, hopefully) that will connect with the streams?
Or will the fact that T-mobile does not offer 3G speeds render this idea useless? Or does t-Mobile not offer any 'unlimited data' plans?

hello all, i have successfully debranded my T-Mobile 6301b and am able to use both the WiFi at my own home and use Opera, Google Maps, Yahoo Go!, whenever there is actually service. All this of course using the backup/restore option on the phone and the Proxy settings from this thread.

Some things I have noticed include:
-The phone does not recognize my wired headset. For radio or call use. Anyone else have this issue? This one I really would like to find a fix for.
-The Instant Messaging options (AIM, ICQ, MSN, Yahoo) are gone, not that I really care but it is not on the unbranded image. If there is a way to get those back it would be nice, but not important.
-Additional menu item of PTT, not used but its there.
-Some of your themes will be gone...and I can now edit my right soft key button!

Anyone had any problems with the 9.40 upgrade and WiFi????

Does anyone knows if its possible to unbrand this phone via NSS? Since i dont know why, but pheonix doesnt run on my pc.


Please help,
i dont need the TMobile software since i use this phone on a different carrier...

tnx

[norbi99]

Try changing the product code with NSS to a Euro code and use nokia firmware upgrader. That might do the trick.

-I had pretty much all NAM and EU firmwares available on my phone and none of them had issues detecting my headset. Try cleaning out the put in the phone, if someting ( paper, dirt) gets in there that might cause connection problems. Or try a different headset.
- The IM software is gone, I could not find a way to install it on a debranded phone. There is a yahoo messenger software out there called YMTiny, but it does not support wap/http connectivity yet.

tnx ill try that,
do you know the product codes for the euro versions?

[beebo724]

norbi99, thanks i tried it again, semi cleaned it, moved the headset plug around and it worked, so fixed. Yea YMTiny does not work on it, i too tried it.

Anyone debrand using the latest upgrade and find any extra quirks? The combination of 9.40 and 8.22? I would like to do it but if the WiFi is wiped out it wouldnt be worth it. And im not sure if you can downgrade back to the 5.93 and 4.61 combinations

I'm using the combo of 9.40 and 8.22 (8.22 content image) and the WiFi works. It's flaky at times— I get 006.1 and 006.3 errors now and then, can't always connect— but I think that has more to do with T-Mobile UMA service than the phone. My first UMA capable phone and I didn't really test its wifi before I flashed it, so I can't compare then vs. now. I also don't have @home so I can't comment on how that works, but I believe as long as you have the 8.22 content image and you haven't lost your T-Mobile certificates along the way thru flashing, you should still be able to access wifi.
